从《比丘尼传》看东晋至南朝时期妇女出家的原因

Real Cause to Go a Nunnery from the Biography of Bi Qiu Ni

从南朝梁宝唱所撰《比丘尼传》中,透露出当时比丘尼出家的原因不外乎两个方面:一方面是社会普遍崇佛的大环境影响所致;另一方面则是个人原因,如生活贫困、婚姻不幸、疾病缠身等等。

There were two real reasons for a woman to go a nunnery in the book of Biography ofBi Qiu Ni written by Liang Bao-chang in the time of the Southern Dynasty （A.D. 420-695）. The first is that the whole society is faithful to the Buddhism and the second is the personal reasons such as the poor existed conditions or unhappy marriage or suffering from sickness and so on.
